Almost perfect lunch today

Yes, the stats are pretty awesome and they taste good.  (Look, it's not the best pizza you will ever find, but for the stats, it's pretty good).  Even my husband, who is not on a diet, likes them. Here are the stats on one of them:

Product Description

Eat Rite Nove Pizza Healthy Meal is made of a soy, wheat, and oat fiber crust, and is filled with mushrooms, olives, broccoli, tomatoes, roasted red pepper strips, pinto beans, low fat mozzarella, roman, pamesan cheeses, herbs, and spices. Each pizza is low calorie (215) and low fat (6g). Eat Rite proves that you can make low fat/low carb meals that don't have to taste like health food.

Calories = 215

Protein = 25g

Carbs = 8g

Net Carbs = 3g

Fat = 6g

Cholest = 1mg

Sodium = 125mg

Fiber = 5   And remember, I could only eat about 1/2 of one.

 

Right now I would settle for grade school cafeteria pizza if it were healthy.

Heads up...whether or not this is true, I'd still be leery.

Wow, thank you for bringing it to my attention.  It is a small company and when you contact them you can talk to the owner.  I think I am going to do just that.  After reading this, I would love to see some proof about their stats.  Again, thank you for finding this.  I just did a search on the company and found other people that are quite skeptical of the national information.   I am glad I stopped ordering these a while ego.  I only stopped because I didn't like ordering large quantities, the taste was great.  Wow, you really can't trust labels.  Thanks again for finding this info!!!

It's pretty awful huh? If things seem too good to be true...

In general, I've adopted a "real food" attitude as you can't seem to go wrong with that. All these labels and claims will just lead you astray!

If you do call them I would love to hear what they say to you. I noticed they were only reporting net carbs and some of the crusts seemed a bit questionable.

Adding the site to my favorites. thank you!

I added this to my favorites also then I looked at the link by michellemj , Lucy, you owe me an esplanation!

I have the original 100 calorie packs of beef jerky all over the place. It's 4 or 6g carbs I think but 18g protein. More often than I like to admit, I end up with jerky for lunch. Half chicken ceasar salad from Panera. I can't even eat all of that.

The chicken salad kits. One of them even with the crackers is only 15g carbs. Not terrible in a pinch.

Oh!! I eat the meatballs out of a Firehouse sub more often than I like to admit. I can only eat 2.5-3 of the 5 total meatballs so it's like 2 meals. I have gotten 2 jr. Arby's sandwiches and eaten the roast beef out of it.

You can buy an individual cheese stick at a grocery store or gas station.

Tiff, where can I buy the 100 cal pack of beef jerky?  I'm right at the eat-anything phase and think that would be a good addition to my greek yogurt and cottage cheese snacks.  Thanks,
